The boulders in the image appear round and symmetrical, similar to a sphere. A sphere is a 3D shape with a curved, uniform surface.

Step2: Determine Yolanda's correctness

Since the boulders have a round, symmetrical shape (like a sphere), using a sphere to model their surface area is appropriate. So Yolanda is correct. The boulders have a rounded, spherical - like shape, so the best shape to model the surface area is a sphere.
